Best 9 12 Inch Skillet Cornbread Recipes

SKILLET CORNBREAD

Steps:

• Set your oven to 425°F and then add the tbsp of oil to your skillet. Place the skillet in the oven while it comes to temperature.
• In the meantime, mix the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and sugar in a large bowl.
• In a separate bowl beat the eggs and then add the milk and the melted butter.
• Add this into the dry ingredients and mix until blended, if needed you could add a touch more milk, but batter should be thick.
• Go back to your stove wearing your oven mitts and take out the skillet, careful its HOT, then swirl it around a little to coat the bottom of the entire pan with the oil. Place on top of your stove and quickly pour your mixture into the skillet, you will hear it sizzle a little. Place back into your oven and bake for about 20 minutes or until cornbread is nicely browned on top. You can do the cake test if you want with a toothpick also. Serve right away with butter and honey, or jam. FYI - I use a 12 inch skillet for this recipe.

BROWN BUTTER SKILLET CORNBREAD

Steps:

• Heat oven to 375 degrees. On the stovetop, in a 11- or 12-inch skillet (ovenproof and preferably cast iron), melt the butter over medium heat. Cook, swirling pan to lightly coat sides and bottom, until the foam subsides and the butter turns a deep nut brown. (Watch carefully to see that it does not burn.)
• Pour brown butter into a large bowl. (Do not wipe out the pan.) Whisk the maple syrup into the butter, then whisk in buttermilk. The mixture should be cool to the touch; if not, let cool before whisking in the eggs. Then whisk in the cornmeal, flours, baking powder, salt and baking soda.
• If the skillet is no longer hot (cast iron retains heat longer than other metals), reheat it briefly on the stove for a few minutes. Scrape batter back into it. Bake until the top is golden brown and a toothpick inserted into it emerges clean, 30 to 40 minutes. Cool in the skillet for 10 minutes before slicing.

SKILLET CORNBREAD

Steps:

• HEAT the oven to 450°F. Grease a 10-inch cast-iron skillet with 1 tablespoon of the drippings. Heat the skillet in the oven for about 10 minutes.
• COMBINE the egg, milk, and remaining 3 tablespoons of bacon drippings in a medium mixing bowl.
• STIR in the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, and salt. The batter should be creamy and pourable like pancake batter. If it seems too thick or thickens while the oven and skillet heat, stir in a little water.
• POUR the batter into the hot skillet. Bake for 15 to 18 minutes, until the edges look deep golden brown and the top is firm to the touch.
• Corn Cakes
• You can also make corn cakes with this same batter, a popular carrier for a pile of pulled pork. Heat a greased griddle over medium heat. For each corn cake, pour about 1/4 cup of the batter onto the hot griddle. Flip when the edges are dry and the bottom side is a deep golden brown. The recipe will make about 12.
• Note
• You can substitute 1 1/4 cups self-rising cornmeal mix for the cornmeal, all-purpose flour, baking powder, and salt.
